Invasion comes high-in blood and money. Part of the cost must be paid with human life. That means deep and lasting hurt for many and many an American family. Part of the cost must be paid in cash . . . this September. And that's going to hurt, too! TlJe 3'" Wol' Loon O,/YC is heI'B./ To pay for invasion-to get the money to keep our fighting machine going-you, and every man or woman in America, are asked to invest in at least one extra $100 Bond in September. $100 EXTRA, mind you-for everybody! No man or woman can hold back. Noone can point to his Payroll buying and say, "They don't mean me!" No one can say, "I'm al- ready lending 10% or 12% or 20%-I'm doing enough!" Sure-it's going to hurt. It's going to take more than spare cash this time-just money that might have gone for fun. It's going to take money you have tucked a way. It's going to take part of the money we've been living on -that might have meant extra clothes or food! Money that might have gone for any- thing that we can do without! Sure-it'U be tough to dig up that extra money. But we've got to do it-and we wi". We'U do it partly because of the look that would come over the faces of our fighting men if we should fail. We'U do it partly because the cheapest way out of this whole rotten busi- ness is to chip in all we can and help end it quick. We'll do it partly because there's no finer, safer investment in the world than a U. S. War Bond. But mostly, we'll do it because America is right smack in the middle of the biggest, deadliest, dirtiest war in history. And we're Americans. BacK t eatlacK w/ n ar Bonds Gj.

Nobody has realized it, and the fact that the figures are probably a garbled version of something Mr. Hoo- poe has read in a hurry doesn't make things easier. It is no use saying, "How do you know that?" He will reply, " Th ' . . ld . , at s not an opInIon, 0 man, It s mathematics. Anybodv can figure it out for himself." Mr. H oopoe also has the intricacies of naval warfare at his fingertips, and I treasure one or two of his more power- ful epigrams on this difficult subject. Of our blockade of Germany, he said, "A blockade cuts both ways. By which I mean that the blockader loses ships as well as the blockadee." Of the landing in Sicily, he remarked, "If anything has ever been amphibian, that was. The crossing of the sea would have been useless without the landing and the landing would have been impossible without the crossing of the sea." One time, for a moment, we thought we had him stumped. A young man had asked him point-blank, "What would be the effect of the opening of the Dar- danelles? " There was a slight pause, after which Mr. Hoopoe asked the young man to repeat his question. Then he said, "You ask me what would be the effect of the opening of .the Darda- nelles? I shall tell you. It would mean new shipping lanes in Turkish waters. No less than that." The young man looked puzzled and not altogether satis- fied with the answer. "I mean the ef- fect on Russia if Turkey opened the Dardanelles," he said. Mr. Hoopoe smiled blandly. "Surely," he said, "the effett that would have on Russia is only too obvious. Think, my dear sir, think." That made the young man think that he had made a fool of himself, as in- deed he had, and so he did not press the point further. ......::..
